Arabic term or phrase:Arabic word for Frangipani (given by Nancy Eweiss)
I need to know the arabic word for the flowering plant, frangipani. It was given in answer to a request for the arabic names of several plants (see discussion above). However, as I do not read Arabic, I need to see the word in transliterated Arabic, in English letters.
I was told that the Arabic word for frangipani is "fitna". I am aware that this is a very significant word for Muslims, and I do not mean any disrespect. Is this word also used as a plant name, perhaps for frangipani, also called oleander, in English?
Thank you.
